As well as the beautiful beaches and warm shallow waters, Mallorca has heaps of history and plenty of things to do for all the family. Magaluf is one of the main bustling resorts on the island, but our favourite is laid-back Puerto Pollensa in the most northern part of the island. A great base to explore the northern part with its peaceful olive groves, and hilltop villages. Puerto Pollensa is one of Mallorcas most stunning resorts with a pretty horseshoe Bay, backed by the Tramuntana Mountains.
A great value ticket for those visiting Mallorca is the Kids Eat FREE Card which offers unlimited free kids meals at over 150 participating restaurants for the duration of your holiday. Great Value for just £10!
